[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]200 lb adult wrestlers can't defend themselves? That's the dumbest,  most illogical senario I can imagine.[/quote]

Are you sure all these victims were in the 200 lb weight class? Weight classes in that division start at 125.

I wrestled in college. A 125 lb adult big ten wrestler can kill somebody easily. And the lethality goes up from there. [/quote]

Oh please.  That’s the size of a middle schooler.  These wrestlers can’t hold their own against larger people; That’s why they have weight classes. Very few college men are tiny enough to wrestle. [/quote]

They most certainly can. A 125 lb big ten wrestler can take down and literally anihilate much larger men not trained in fighting.[/quote]

It's not a question of physical ability. The doctor was an authority figure whose word could influence whether you got to wrestle or not. If he blackballed you, your scholarship (if any) would be at risk. What do you think would happen if one of these kids punched the doctor? They would be on the next bus home.
